*It is Spring, and the world promises as much to you as you do to it. The dreams – or dread – of your youth have at last been fulfilled, for the Seers declared the time has come to dub you to Knight. You have arrived on the shores of Toscallon, the island at the edge of the world, known far and wide as a place of stories. Tremble, for the tales we will tell are far older than you will ever be. Rejoice, for yours are just beginning.*

A dark fantasy adventure inspired by medieval literature for five intrepid knights. This game leans heavily on exploration, mystery, and improvisation. It is likely to be rules-light, vibes-heavy, and collaborative by nature.

“Most Leshy consider Whispered Leaves to be nothing but a myth. A Leshy village where Leshy are born from a shrine, rather than created by a druid? Protected by the 4 so-called “”Knights of Flowerpower”” from all the dangers of the Northern Fangwood and the Gravelands? Only a fool could believe such stories to be true. Well, thank whatever God smiles upon the foolish, for you have managed to find your way into the Leshy community of Whispered Leaves! You and the other outsiders are gathered at the Mossy Root tavern, waiting for a meeting with the head priest of the Whispering shrine. I’m sure they’ll arrive aaaaany minute now. Come to think of it, you’ve seen no locals today. And, for a community that has existed for so long, completely isolated, all the Leshy seem awfully young. Also, why does it smell like something’s burning?!?

Knights of Flowerpower is a Pathfinder2e game where you play as Leshy, immortal nature spirits that inhabit small plant bodies. You will have to defend the legendary village of Whispered Leaves from a sudden threat, and discover any dark secrets it might be hiding.”

Report on BrightDawn University’s annual safety audit:

72% of the university passes safety standards; however I was unable to inspect their research bee hives, locate their on campus power source or inspect their medical facilities before my allergic reaction to cola kicked in. Due to me not having a previously known allergy to cola (in fact drinking it regularly) and some of the staff acting irrationally during the audit, I recommend an immediate second on to ensure that nothing was missed.

Internal memo at Brightdawn university:

If we have another audit, the instant allergy beam is banned. And so is hurting the inspector.
